Any OBD1 vtec ecu will work if you aren't already running one. You don't need a vtec controller if it is chipped...the vtec engagement points are adjustable with the rom editor you are using.

He can even use a nonvtec ECU if it's properly converted.

As stated above, obd-1 vtec conversion kit will be needed, probably your most cost effictive solution. After this, you will just need re-tuned / different map.
